[REVIEW][PATCH 00/26] signal: Remove task argument from force_sig_info

["Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>]

Folks,

If folks can look this over and see if I have missed something I would
appreciate it.

The force_sig_info interface is designed to handle synchronous exceptions
like page faults.  The locking in force_sig_info does not handle being
called on a remote task that is already running.  It has been a long
standing problem over the years that it is not obvious to people that
restriction exists or that force_sig is for exceptions and they call it
somewhere inappropriate.  A recently fixed example is
6376360ecbe5 ("mm: hwpoison: use do_send_sig_info() instead of force_sig()").

I was looking over the force_sig family of functions not long ago and
realized that there really are not that many cases where they are called
with on a process other than current and it is possible to remove the
current parameter, which should make it hard to make this mistake naively.

I found exactly two legitimate places where force_sig was being called on a
non-current task.  On mips force_fcr31_sig is called in switch_to on next
the task that we are in the middle of making current.  On parisc in
user_enable_single_step on a task that is stopped in a SIGKILL safe way in
ptrace.  Both to my eyes appear to meet all of the criterion for being
safe to call from force_sig.  

While reviewing that last ptrace case I found a funny corner case bug
of PTRACE_KILL, and so that fix is included in this patset as well.

Through "signal/cifs: Fix cifs_put_tcp_session to call send_sig instead of
force_sig" the patches in this patchset are bug fixes.  I don't think any
of them are urgent as they have existed for a long time, but definitely worth
fixes.

The rest of the changes are cleanups that carefully remove the task parameters
from the entire force_sig family of functions.  Until at last force_sig_info
only takes a struct siginfo.
